Reconcile with God.
As we wrap up the series, we are urging you to reconcile with God, so that you may be at peace and that good things may come to your life. To take a life journey without being reconciled with God can cause agony, misery and materialism dependence. Nevertheless, when you're reconciled with God you are rest assured that you have a friend that sticks closer than the brother.
Reconciliation is a gift given to us by God. It is not something that we have to work for, but we just receive it by faith. According to God if we had to work in order for us to reconcile with Him, there was no amount of salary could cover the payment. As of the Jewish nation, they tried to keep the Law for the past four thousands years but thier righteousness became filthy rags (Isa 64:6). So it won't do us any good as gentiles to keep the law. Because it is clear that no one can be made right with God by trying to keep the law (Gal 3:11) . For the Scriptures say, “It is through faith that a righteous person has life.”
After receiving this gift of Reconciliation we are given a ministry to reconcile others back to God. Actually it is not the work of the Evangelist, Missionary or the Preacher to reconcile people back to God. Nevertheless, everyone who has been reconciled with God has a task to reconcile others also. Any Christian who judges, condemns, and criticize others hasn't receive the ministry of reconciliation. Because when a man is in Christ, his work is to reconcile and win over not to find fault and blame other people. (2 Cor 5:19) Just as God was in Christ, reconciling the world to Himself, He didn't count people’s sins against them. He neither did not punish us as our sins deserve (Psa 103:10-12). He has removed our sins as far from us, as the east is from the west.
This wonderful message of reconciliation does not permit us Christians to separate the water from oil, it doesn't permit us to set people apart from sin, because no human being can make another human being to forsake sin it is only through the Power of God after reconciliation. We are not sent to the field in order to pull out weed, because when we try to pull out weed, we might pull them out along with wheat (Matt 13:24-30). We are not ruling out the fact that we must preach this message of Reconciliation, patiently correcting , rebuking , and encouraging people with good teaching, however it is up to an individual to decide whether to do what we preach or not.
Grace allow people to make a choice for themselves but religion enforces whatever seems lawful to them.
Grace is all about us making peace with God, so that we won't see God as an enemy. Because God is for us, He is not against us. What He need is for us to reconcile with Him by putting our trust in the finish works of Calvary. Inner peace is found when a person is in right standing with God through Faith in Jesus Christ (Rom 5:1). To anyone who needs a good life, the only thing to do is to reconcile with God and things will turn out alright.
[Acquaint now thyself with him, and be at peace: thereby good shall come unto thee.]
(Job 22:21)
If only you want to be reconcile with God. Pray the following pray of repentance with us! This is the only way we can reconcile ourselves with God.
"Lord Jesus I accept you as my personal Savior and Lord, I confess with my mouth that Jesus is Lord, also believe in my heart that God raised Him from the dead. Today I am saved, born again, justified and righteous. Amen"
Now that you are reconciled with God through Jesus Christ, the only thing left for you is to be Baptized in the Name of Jesus Christ as a sign of your Reconciliation.
